the REAL solution to the font problem.

I've figured out how to change your font to ANY TTF and not crash.. this requires no modification to the game client so technically, its perfectly legal in TQ terms.

[Begin]
1. Go to your start menu, Run, and type in regedit and hit enter.
2. Navigate to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft&#0 92;Windows NT\Current Version\Fonts
3. Right Click on the right pane and select new -> string
4. Change the name to "Courier New (Original)"
5. Right click on that entry and click modify.
6. Put "COUR.TTF" for the value data and press ok
7. Scroll down to "Courier New (Truetype)" and right click -> modify.
8. Now put in any font's file you want into the value data (ex. i want comic sans, therefore, i would put comic.ttf - comic sans's font file)
9. Press ok, exit regedit
10. Reload conquer and enjoy!
[End]

From now on, if you ever want to use Courier New (who does anyway?) select Courier New (Original) and you'll be typing with the old font again!




Feedback and karma appreciated :D

I followed the method to change the font to comic sans. It works, but the word spacing are slightly messed up... any ideas?
